OT - IE Plug-In ?

[Joe Camel]

*** OFF TOPIC ***

Folks,

Where do I go to find out (:where to start:) finding out information on how
to write a plug-in for Internet Explorer.

I need to place a button on IE's toolbar and when it's pressed the URL and a
couple of filled in fields are to be sent to a web[service] site.

Thanks.

Regards,
Joe

Joe,

You will have to create a Browser Helper Object for this. Check the
article on MSDN titled "Browser Helper Objects: The Browser the Way You Want
It", located at (watch for line wrap):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...us/dnwebgen/ht
ml/bho.asp

The code is in C++, but the framework for BHOs is through COM, which you
can use C#/.NET to develop for.

Hope this helps.

Morten,

I've followed the tutorial and have managed to get most of it to work.

However, I need to get the value of the URL in the Address field, within the
"button1_Click" method.

"this.Explorer.LocationURL" produces the following error:
'SHDocVw.WebBrowserClass' does not contain a definition for 'LocationURL'

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
Joe

You can use the IHTMLDocument2 interface to get the current location.
Code would look like this:
IHTMLDocument2 doc2 = this.Explorer.Document as IHTMLDocument2;
IHTMLLocation location = doc2.location as IHTMLLocation;
string url = location.href;
